Residents of Austin, Texas recently saw something in the air that they probably wouldn't expect to see. A banner regarding Elon Musk and his company Tesla flew, but it wasn't supporting the company. Here's what is known at the time of writing.

When Was The Banner Spotted In Austin?

The video in question was shown by FOX 7, which you can see here. The banner said "Save Tesla Fire Musk" as revealed in the video. What many of the people watching didn't know that the message shown matched the time of the earning call that took place on the same day, which was today, April 22nd, 2025. But, is there anyone responsible for the message?

Per FOX 7, it is unknown at the time of writing who was responsible for the message. So whomever who purchased the message remains anonymous. But why would a message like this be shown on a day of an earnings call?

Is There Actually A Reason For The Messaging?

Much like the person who made the message happen, a reason hasn't been stated either. But FOX 7 did reveal that recent troubles with Tesla and the company may have something to do with it. The main causes may be due to all the issues happening with Tesla at the time of writing.

FOX 7 reports that both problems with Tesla vehicles and how Musk's collaboration with the Trump presidency may have something to do with the message appearing. But at the time of writing that hasn't been confirmed.

If more information becomes available, we will report it here.

However, Bezos is not the world's richest person right now. That title goes to the founder of SpaceX, Tesla, and the new owner of Twitter, Elon Musk. Musk owns a mansion in Austin but says his main home is a $50,000 rental from SpaceX in Boca Chica, Texas.
